Our continuing quest to de-blue the house took another huge leap forward yesterday with the repainting of the deck. See, the previous owners of the house had a fetish for this particular shade of blue, which was used… well… on pretty much any paintable surface. We’ve been slowly working to change that and add a…

I’ve added a category to the navigation on the right called “Interesting Reading.” It’s shaping up to be a collection of websites and blogs that I read on a regular basis and find interesting. Don’t get the wrong impression, though. Just because I put a link up to a site doesn’t mean that I agree…

Amanda says… Well, I will have been sick for a month this weekend. I have never been sicker in my life. EVER! When Derek took me to the doctor on Jan 24th I was sure that my appendix was going to be taken out that day. Instead, the doctor told us this: “Well, I’m sure…

Mondays are why they invented coffee, and sometimes I should have multiple cups before laying hands on the keyboard. My supervisor is on vacation this week, so it is a particularly good time to NOT cause any major catastrophes. As I eased into the morning, I needed to take a glance at our agent log…

Preservation is the way – thoughts following #presconf

It was a great week for Buffalo. The National Trust preservation conference has wrapped, and I’m admittedly still coming down from the “conference high” (the condition where you’ve been drinking the Kool-Aid for a week and reality has yet to set in again) but that doesn’t change the fact that this conference will have a…
From all those photographs, the one that struck me (and probably not many others) the most is the one with the bicycles all lined up. The juxtaposition of very modern with the very communist-egalitarian is a hoot. I have a similar photograph from my trip to Shanghai – hundreds upon hundreds of bicycles, all virtually identical, Schwinn-looking, rust-covered, circa 1950s. I never did find out if they were community property or individually owned, but I couldn’t imagine knowing how to tell mine from the others, had I owned one.

Hooters in China….. I like them more and more all the time.
Have seen many of your photos, but I don’t really remember alot of them not to say that they aren’t good but there are a few here that have really caught my eye — the black and white tree lined pathway is amazing. I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
